How to exclude data in load based on another QVD?

Fri, 27 May 2011 21:04:44 GMT

Is there a way to exclude data being loaded from one QVD based on values in another QVD? Sample code is below. What I am trying to do is when I load the DetailTable, exclude records that have certain values in masterCategory. masterDetailLink and detailLink can be used for the lookup.

For example, if detailLink (which corresponds to masterDetailLink) exists in the Master.qvd file with a value of 'M' or 'R' for masterCategory, then the record should not be loaded from the Detail.qvd file. If the masterCategory is anything other than 'M' or 'R', it should be loaded.

Any help is much appreciated!

MasterTable:
LOAD
masterCode,

masterDetailLink
masterCategory
FROM

(qvd)

DetailTable:
LOAD

    detailCode,
    detailName,
    detailValue,

detailLink as masterDetailLink

FROM

Hi,

For this you can use the function exists(), it should be something like this:

MasterTable:
LOAD
masterCode,

masterDetailLink
masterCategory
FROM

(qvd)

DetailTable:
LOAD
    detailCode,
    detailName,
    detailValue,

detailLink as masterDetailLink
FROM

where not exists(masterDetailLink);

Hope this helps

Regards!
